Välinge and MeisterWerke Awarded Schweighofer Prize for Woodura/Lindura

Viken, SE, June 17, 2015—Välinge and licensee MeisterWerke have jointly been awarded the Schweighofer Prize for their wood powder technology-based flooring concept Woodura/Lindura.

The concept utilizes a wood-based powder that is fused in to a wood veneer. In this process, the powder perfectly fills up the natural openings of the wood and enhances the wood appearance, eliminating the need for putty operations and creates a significantly stronger surface.

Välinge is the first Swedish industrial company to receive the award. 

The flooring concept, branded Woodura by Välinge and sold under the name Lindura by MeisterWerke, was developed in close collaboration by the two companies and was first introduced on the market in 2013.
